I rewatched Glee last night. At least half that show is a blatant ripoff/homage to 'Election'.

I don't care what that character's name is, she's always going to be Tracey Flick to me.

This is not necessarily a bad thing. I look forward to its return.

This intrigues me, actually -- nm - con_carne May 21, 10:25 6
- It's really more similar to High School Musical than anything else. -- nm - Inigo May 21, 10:25 5
  - In plot, yes on the very basic level. In tone, not even close. -- nm - Dano May 21, 10:37 2
    - The Election comparison is much closer in tone. So High School Musical meets Election would be a good description. -- nm - Dano May 21, 10:38 1
      - I would agree with this. It's only HSM on the very surface. -- nm - Callisto May 21, 10:43
  - Seems to be shooting for a different demo, from the promos I saw. - con_carne May 21, 10:32

The football kid from Glee is totally Chris Klein. (nm) - musubi May 21, 10:24 2
- The actor is also apparently 27 years old. -- nm - Dano May 21, 10:52
- That the male lead on the Don't Stop Believin' part? - Jim May 21, 10:40
Good call. -- nm - Mop (236 lbs) May 21, 10:24
